Beard Head’s Movember “Mo Space” Page!

We here at Beard Head have decided to support the “Movember” organization. If you would also like to support this incredibly worthy cause, please check out our new “Mo Space” page where we set up a special donation page for our “Team Beard Head”! (http://mobro.co/beardhead)

Every donation you make through our “Team Beard Head” page will go directly towards Movember, but we’ll also send you a pack of Beard Head stickers as a way of saying “thank you”! We’ll also periodically do giveaways and hand out other gifts to “Team Beard Head” members. Go register now and support a great cause!

Of course there are other ways to support Movember than a donation. In fact, the best thing you could do is to grow a mustache (no beards though…careful!). Read more about it after the break!

WHAT IS MOVEMBER?

Movember is the month formerly known as November, where men and women across the globe join together to raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues. Men grow a Mo (moustache) for 30 days to become a walking, talking billboards, for our men’s health causes - specifically cancers affecting men.

Men who support Movember, called Mo Bros, start by registering at Movember.com. Mo Bros start Movember 1st clean-shaven, then grow and groom their Mo, for the rest of the month, raising money along the way. Women who support Movember, called Mo Sistas, also start by registering at Movember.com. Mo Sistas champion the Mo by supporting their Mo Bros, organizing events, leading a team and spreading the important message of men’s health.

WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO?

Funds raised through the Movember US campaign go to Movember (Tax ID: 77-0714052) which is a national, not for profit organization with 501(c)(3) registration.

The net funds are committed to programs supporting prostate cancer and other male cancer initiatives run by Movember and through our men’s health partners the Prostate Cancer Foundation and LIVESTRONG. 

The Prostate Cancer Foundation, LIVESTRONG and Movember together ensure that funded programs are world-class and align with our strategic goals

Thrillist and Beard Shirts!

We absolutely love the folks over at Thrillist.com, an online magazine/daily email that “finds the best of what’s new in your ‘hood and on the web.”  Thrillist was one of the very first outlets to feature our Beard Heads way back when we first launched, and their coverage was a huge part of our success.  

Last Thursday Thrillist featured our brand new Beard Shirts in their Style section!  Check it out here!  If you like the content you find on Thrillist, make sure to subscribe to their daily email!  They’re one of the few emails I get every morning that I actually open up and read.

New Beard Shirts and Photos

So we just put up some new product shots for our new Beard Shirts, as well as a few new photos for some of our other Beard Head products.  Now that it’s summer and the weather is hot hot hot…perhaps too hot for a Beard Head…don a beard with our Beard Shirt instead!  =D

We took some Beard Heads out to a Warrior Dash event in Lake Elsinore, CA this weekend.  Armed with two GoPro HD Hero cameras, we took to the mud and got dirty!  Unfortunately, we lost some of the best footage due to a SDHC card error, but there’s still some good stuff here!

Payvment Showing Off Their Beard Heads!

A few weeks ago we launched our Facebook store using a new app called “Payvment”.  Now our fans can make purchases directly through our Facebook page, AND receive 10% off just for being a fan!  Very cool, right?  So we decided to send off a few Beard Heads over to the Payvment offices as a gesture of gratitude for creating such a sweet app!  Looks like they’re enjoying them!

   

Knit Helmets Back In Stock!

I know the weather is starting to warm up, and we’re a little late with the knit helmets, but at least they’re finally here!  The epic Spartan and Viking knit helmets are available for purchase by themselves, or paired with a Beard Head for a discount!  Now, everyone already knows how awesome Beard Heads are, but when you throw a knit helmet on top of them…goodness, watch out!  You’ll be turning heads, dropping jaws, and causing traffic accidents with your epicness!  Get ‘em while you can!
